The Workout

- My routine consists of heavy and hard lifts. All Lifts are done as heavy as possible to achieve 7-10 reps on the first set of 3 and all sets are done to failure unless noted otherwise. I usually do a DC routine but do to me being home from college for the summer and living in the middle of nowhere I don't have the facilities to perform a correct DC routine. Lifting days are Monday, Wednesday, Friday with cardio on Tuesday or Thursday. For cardio, I usually do a brisk 2 mile walk or 2 mile bike ride depending on how I feel.

Fats: just what i get from the fish and meat and whatever else i happen to eat.

Supporting Supps:
Creatine Mono
ON Whey Protien
NOW adam multi-v

-Sorry about the delay guys... Monday i had a prior engagement so i could not make it to the gym. As for yesterday, the power conveniently went out for 3 hours around 5 o'clock becuase of the storms that passed through the northeast, so i was also not able to get a workout in. Today i am very busy trying to fix my basement because it flooded but i did get to the gym so i thought i should get my log up before anyone started to wonder. Thanks again MST for the opportunity.

-I have been taking citruvol since Monday and I don't know if this is just placebo but when i was squating doing 20 reps, my legs didn't feel as burnt out as they normally do with that weight. I was still dead ass tired but my muscles didn't have that intense burn.

Congrats on the PR on squats. What you mentioned is Citruvol reducing the annoying lactic acid burn that you usually feel.

A little more info from the Citruvol write-up:

2. Reduction in Lactic Acid and Ammonia L-Citrulline is an intermediate in the urea cycle. The urea cycle is a system in the liver where carrier molecules and enzymes convert nitrogenous wastes into urea for elimination. The production and removal of urea is essential for the elimination of built up ammonia and harmful nitrogen metabolites. Ammonia is highly toxic to cells and elevated amounts can cause severe health effects and even death. Even in healthy athletes, small increases in ammonia can lead to extreme fatigue and poor performance. Ammonia also reduces glycogen formation, and inhibits energy production. Exercise, whether aerobic or anaerobic creates elevated levels of ammonia. Ammonia also forms when intestinal flora (healthy bacteria) in the digestive tract break down protein. Citrulline Malate aids in the elimination of amino acid byproducts of protein metabolism. Research suggests that citrulline malate may help to eliminate “the burn” associated with lactic acid build up as well as reduce the negative effects of ammonia and bacterial produced toxins on performance. The anti-fatigue properties of Citrulline Malate in human studies show excellent application for its use as a performance enhancer for all athletes.

Felt ok today in the gym. Didn't feel right for some reason. But anyways, I did notice that I wasn't as winded after sets as i usually was. I felt good in that aspect. I think my diet was a little off today didn't get enough carbs in preworkout, felt kinda drained. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

-Felt good today, lots of energy. Once i was done with one exercise I was jsut ready to go to the next. Biceps were pumped as hell, actually my entire arm was pumped, felt good. I was sweating a little bit more than usual today but i don't see that as a bad thing. So far so good.

Sweet workout. Nice to see you doing lots of warmup sets. Better to be safe than sorry!

Yea thats how i feel about it. Plus I feel more ready when I get to the heavy weight, it doesn't feel so heavy after doing an extensive warm up.

I got a question about dosing on non lifting days, I take it preworkout on all the days i work out but during the weekend I rest and recover. when should I dose this because the letter i got from you guys said to take it everyday.

I would take it when (whatever time preworkout generall is) you usually take it on workout days, but I really don't think it will make too much of a difference.

-Overall so far I'm really liking this supp, my legs were really pumped today. I'm also not feeling as sore the day after and my muscles aren't burning as much after the sets. I was also sweating a crazy amount today. This is just getting better as the days go on.

Warm Up: 45x10
Work Set: 65x8, 65x6, 65x6
-Usually do alot better on these had to use a diffrent seat this time cuase some butthole was hogging it and i got tired of waiting. I think it kinda messed up my form or something.

Tri Rope Pushdown

Warm Up: None
Work set: 50x10, 60x8, 60x7

So far I can tell that I'm not getting as tired as i normally do after my workouts which is a very good thing! Not as sore as usual after a workout. Reduces the recovery time needed between sets. Liking this a lot so far!!

Lookin' great, brother. I am the same way with the DB Shoulder Presses. There's two different kinds of benches in my gym which can be used for shoulder press and when I get the skinny bench I know it's going to be a rough day. For some reason, I always end up sitting on my balls when I throw the weight up on that wobbly, skinny bench.

Hey Guys sorry for not posting up on Friday but my gym was locked for some reason and i dont know what the hell is going on. But my cardio this week has been great. My legs dont feel tired when im done and im not as tired either. Hopefully on Monday when i got back to the gym it will be unlocked. This may seem weird to you but i work out in this building. Its privately owned and i dont have to pay a membership fee or anything, some guy owns it and just lets the local lifters lift there for free, good way to give back to the community. But anyways im looking forward to Monday, cant wait.

Can't beat a free gym! Sounds like everything is working very well for ya!

- Well there is a very noticeable increase in endurance, im not nearly getting as tired in between sets as i usually do, im also no completely drained after my workout either. There is also a decrease is muscle soreness. Nothing new so far although i am noticing that that pumps are becoming increasingly more noticible as i continue taking citurvol. Im really liking so far.

The increased pumps are my favorite part of Citruvol. Glad to see you're noticing some other effects as well. Nothing I have ever taken has helped me with DOMS. I can't stand them, but they won't leave me alone!

You can really tell this stuff is working on leg day. This stuff is great, my legs were massively pumped and i had good endurance and hardly any burn while doing squats. just keeps getting better and better
